Nothing wrong with Kimmo, he just called everyone out like most QPR players should be called out. Buz isnt going around telling how great he is and how he should be playing for his country, he also isnt on 80k a week. Barton has done nothing apart from be an embarrassment since he came to us. Everyone has bad games once in a while, Barton hasnt had a single good, never mind great game yet.
In that Barton case i have to disagree with you bully-boy. He is the player with the best work-rate in our team and for example he does more runnin than any other player. I dont care what he writes on his twitter because all he do on the pitch is much more important to me. Nobody has said officially that he earns 80.000/a week so what the hell? SO Buzsacky is better player because he dont so big selfconfidence and he dont shouting to all the people ,that he should be playing for Hungary? Kimmo Timonen in the other hand is great player
Barton should be by far the best player on the team. for example, if we signed Rooney, would you be happy if he was only slightly better than Bothroyd? Players like Derry, Hill or Buz are playing as well as can be expected, Barton has performed nowhere near as good as he can, his loudmouth arrogance only highlights that. We need 11 players with the heart of Sami Kapanen!
Buzz's attitude is suspect at the best of times, tempered only by his dead ball prowess. Its not enough, and Barton has ther most incomplete pass rate of any mid-fielder in the PL last time I looked. All about attitude, not just ability.
Well ,Sami Kapanen plays nowadays in finnish league and last time he was against my team our boys pushed him around the rink quite easily. Yes , Barton hs not been as good as i expected but he is still our weak midfields best player. Any comparision with Buzsacky are full of....Ron Hextall! But yes i agree with you that we need big hearted players and Sami Kapanen is an exellent example.
Barton plays about as well as he did at his previous clubs, don't understand why people are surprised! He was never exactly Rooney, even if he thought he was better! That he is poison, loud mouthed, overpaid, and came free, are hardly relevant to how he is doing on the pitch now, and after MH made the decision (the wrong one IMO) not to try and replace him in January. As you say Igor he seems to be far and away the best CM we have at present. I hope Diakate is really good in the same ways as Ale, and where Barton is weak, ie., in making simple but effective accurate passes, and also a good ball winner, and quicker and stronger than both Ale and Barton.
This is what we're missing! Tacklers Team Tackles Success rate Faurlin QPR 90 76% Cabaye Newcastle 81 65% Figueroa Wigan 77 73% Diamé Wigan 76 72% Young QPR/Aston Villa 76 67% He's been out for six weeks but still lead the stats with both tackles and success rate. Strong numbers for Young as well. Let me put it this way, IF we're relegated, NO way will we be able to hold on to Ali.
